Mr. Meeks, are you going to handle those for us? >> Good evening, everybody. I get the distinct pleasure to acknowledge our students of the month. And we are going to start off with our 7th grade student, Montgomery Libby. >> He's at track. >> Oh, yeah. Or someone to recognize him anyway. So, Montgomery, our Monty as we call him, is an outstanding student athlete and young man who is well deserving of the student of the month. As a 7th grader, Monty leads by example, being where he should be, wearing
004his uniform, and what he should be doing all of the things that any good any kid should be doing. Monty is a good student who makes straight A's and participates in class. This year he gave an outstanding persuasive speech arguing that modern movies are terrible. It was one of the best speeches in all of 7th grade that was delivered with creativity and confidence. Montgomery is also a good athlete. He plays football and hockey and is also running track for the Chiefs. In addition, Mikey plays recreational soccer and participates in the ski club. Mikey is a joy to be a joy to have in class, and I look forward to hearing all of the successes that he has in the future. And that is from Mr. Zach Wright. We'll make sure he gets that tomorrow, okay?
005So, congratulations to Next, we have eighth grade student Madison Fort. I'll read a little piece on her as well. Maddy is one of the most mature students that we have in the eighth grade. She displays that with her academic focus and ability to avoid distractions. Grades are important to her, but true understanding is even more important. She is active in our classroom discussions. She's not afraid to ask questions, and she and I have had quite a few insightful math talks over the year. Thank you for the opportunity to recognize her special desire to learn with a student of month a student of the month award. was from Mr. Gary DeMeo. So, congratulations Madison Fort. Next, we have Brooklyn Meo. Brooklyn Meo. >> Yeah. >> Come on up. All right, come on. It's written up in
006front of everybody. Um Who's nominating Brooklyn Meo on the bottom of this page? >> Myles Finger. >> Who nominated >> From Mr. Finger. Okay, thank you. I'll read it. Okay. It is my honor to introduce Brooklyn as our freshman student of the month. Brooklyn has made a remarkable impact in her first year, particu- particularly in introduction to metals. I'll read that in a second. That one. Okay. Where she is already excelling at a complex fabrication task. What truly sets Brooklyn apart is her exceptional work ethic and a consistently positive attitude that elevates the energy of this entire workshop. She approaches every new technique with a genuine willingness to learn and remains incredibly attentive during detailed safety and technical instruction. Perhaps most impressively, Brooklyn is always the first to step away from her own project to
007help other students, demonstrating her leadership skills that are very rare in a freshman. Her ability to balance personal excellence with a commitment to her peers makes her a standout member of our school community. Please join me in congratulating Brooklyn on this well-deserved recognition. Next, we have our 10th grade student, it's Savannah Natalie. Is she here? Is someone going to talk about her, too? Savannah exemplifies humble excellence in the classroom. She begins by entering the classroom with a positive and pleasant attitude on a daily basis. Without being prompted, she listens when she should be listening, and works when she should be working, and she shows great initiative in beginning her daily tasks and taking care of tak- and takes care and pride in doing quality work, self-checking, self-editing prior to submitting her assignments. Her attitude, aptitude,
008and effort are great examples for all to follow. She was nominated by Mr. Nesbitt in the VAT class. So, congratulations to Savannah. Oh, that's right, guys. He's standing right next to me. So, come on up here, buddy. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Christian Natalie. He is our 11th grade student of the month, and he was nominated by Zach Ray. Christian is a friendly, athletic, outgoing young man who I'm very happy to nominate for student of the month. He is a positive, happy, and well-mannered student who is very enjoyable to have in class or on your team. Christian plays football and wrestles for the Chiefs. As a first-year wrestler, Christian made the varsity lineup and placed in the state term. Christian also participates in powerlifting and is one of the strongest students in the entire school.
009So, congratulations to Mr. Anselment and his parents. Last but not least, we have Mr. Carson Schryer. Less than a month away from graduation, it's crazy. So, he was nominated by Jillian Raymond. She said, "It has been a joy to watch Carson grow up over the last 4 years. He is not the loudest student in the room or the first to raise his hand, but that does not make him shine any less. He can be counted on on day after day to bring his positive energy into every class and is always willing to take on a challenge. His classmates seem to look to him as someone they can trust and they're quick to ask for for help. Carson is a fantastic representation representation of the Sheboygan Area Schools and I cannot wait to hear about all
010of his future accomplishments after graduation. So, congratulations Carson. We have all these students that represent our high school and these are six of the best. So, congratulations to all of you tonight. >> And Mr. Kangas from Inverness Campus, >> Thank you. >> Thanks for saying that. >> Okay, I have uh four students uh that are going to be acknowledging today. And we're doing two from our in-person and two from our virtual. Uh so, we're going to start off with uh Aiden Baxter since uh he's on break right now. He's got to get back to work. All right. So, uh Aiden Aiden, how many years have you been with us at Inverness? >> Four. >> All right, this is Aiden's fourth year with uh here with us at Inverness and he should be graduating from here
011in about a month. Aiden, I have known him since I first started working here and I've seen Aiden you know mature over the last couple of years and really start to grow into his own and really start to take responsibility and accountability for himself and it's really great to see and Mr. Evoy has a little note here as well. Aiden masters maturity and self-control and engagement and appears to be committed to finish strong as a student. He focuses on his work in my English class and he has completed every assignment this quarter turning in quality work on time. He's currently earning an A. And I can say the same thing that you have also been doing a lot of hard work in my classes as well. So, thank you so much for that and congratulations.

Next on our agenda is our superintendent report. >> Thank you. Uh we have a hopefully short superintendent's report this evening, but we have a
017couple of guests I'd like to start off with first. Brett from Site Logic is here in person and Becky, are you there? And then there's Becky. Uh they're part of the design team. We've seen a lot of action happening at East Elementary. We also got some other projects that we're finishing up this summer, in particular the track and the tennis courts. And we also have some things on the horizon like the elevator and the high school restrooms. So, I'll turn turn it over to you guys and if you guys want to give us a quick update, that'd be great. >> Yeah, I will. So, apologize for the mask. I was brawling and I ain't got a buck. So, but uh I'm Brett Springate, the project manager with Site Logic. I have Becky, I'm sure you've
018uh worked with as well. And we have another gentleman, Nate Sheridan, that's on site at the elementary school that you probably see a lot more frequently. He's there He's there daily. So, we have uh uh you know, we got got underway. I I And I brought we had a lovely groundbreaking. and I think we might even have some pictures of those. I brought a banner so you you can you can share it here with you know, what the new addition is going to look like. >> Do you want to show Brett? >> Sure. Sure, let's let's put it up there. So, this is posted out at the site. >> Oh. >> And that's what it's going to that's what it's going to finish out. >> Nice. >> So, we're getting underway. The The other items
019that's coming up quickly is tomorrow is a bid opening for the middle school and the high school. And we'll get our our final numbers on the on the total project, and we'll review that with Spencer and finance and grounds committee. And I'm happy to answer any questions if you got something something about to ask about schedule. Uh or we'll have more accurate things on cost by the next board meeting. >> Board, are there any questions for Brett? Becky, did you have anything you wanted to share before we get into questions? >> Yeah, I just put a little couple more progress photos up on my screen here. Just what's happening on the interior. So, we had the groundbreaking obviously for the exterior portion, but we have been working on part of the interior of those the
020building right now for East Elementary. So, we've been removing we have couple of like six classrooms on the back side that were turned over to us early, so we were able to do some investigation with the removal of those unit ventilators. Those were really what were causing you know, a big part of the bond, so we're working through getting some of those replaced so that we can get these rooms turned over hopefully maybe a little little bit earlier because these will be the pre-K rooms. Um so, they can have some extra time to set up over the summer. Uh and also working through adding bathrooms. So, we've got our underground is what's showing up on there. I know there's not really any pretty pictures, but that's just kind of how the progress is right now.
021So, we've got some demolition, abatement going on, door removal. >> Yeah, I really appreciate really appreciate Spencer and and Steve and and all the crew with the school allowing us to start early. It It makes a big difference to get that little head start. I know it's maybe uh provides a little inconvenience, but really going to play out well in the long run get you back in school. Uh >> Beautiful. >> Uh, another item is you have gotten our state We've got our state approval. We had that a little a while ago. Um, just wanted to explain we have a change in the design with the mezzanine, the mechanical space. So, in our original design for the mezzanine, it was a steel uh and concrete poured concrete floor, so it was really kind of a
022true floor and then we had our mechanical units sitting on top of that. Uh, for placement in the building I'm realizing right now I don't have that on here. This is the space uh between the gym and the cafeteria. There's currently a We're going to take down that wall and give part of it back to the gym the gym and lower that floor. With our air handling units, we are replacing those. Um So, there's currently a mechanical mezzanine there. It's just kind of wood stud. We're not supposed to have that, so we have gone and built in a proper one and we've had a louver on the outside of the building right here and we're going to feed in the two new units from that louver and place them onto this flooring. We were going
023to have this accessible via a ship's ladder, is what it's called. One of the comments This was okay with BCC in the state of Michigan. BFS uses a different um version of the NFPA and so a ship's ladder they we we did a little bit of back and forth and they weren't um we were trying to come to compliance with that NFPA 101. Um so what I am showing you here is our new design. What we have done is we turned that um ship's ladder into a full stair. It's actually going to be a lot safer for the maintenance team to be able to come up and maintain these units. Um and we have shifted from that poured concrete floor to a metal grating floor. Our units will still be sitting in the exact location
024they were. We reduced to try to offset some of the cost, we reduced the size of this uh the metal grating as much we could. You can see that on this photo here. So this was the original design and I can blow it up if you need to too, but in red is the new design. So I'm trying to capture um and maximize the amount of space uh and use of that area. So original the steel and concrete construction was 355 sq ft. With new platform with the metal grating it's going to be 226 sq ft with a stair a switchback stair as you can see on the drawings. >> Yeah, we we looked at this. We had uh new players on the on the team. We had new contractors on there. There's a lot
025of people uh looked at this looked at this side and uh you know, from a constructability standpoint it's a small space, right? You can't fit more than five or six guys in there. So we're trying to go with a uh one trade uh as best we can with steel and uh you know, meet those meet those deadlines. And the good news is the air handlers are expected uh within the next couple of weeks, but we've already worked out with Steve to put them in the in the bus barn, so the equipment is is coming. >> Any questions? Uh Brett or Becky, can you talk We got a bunch of people here that probably interested to know, you know, we we were able to get started a little bit earlier on East Elementary. Um we were
026able to work on uh one wing a little bit there, and then also you can see all the construction going on out front, and that's where the large uh learning lab's going to be in the new office space. So, because you guys were able to start early and we were able to get you in there and working and and knock on wood we've been uh we've had some good weather. Can you tell us a little bit about the timeline? I know by the end of the summer we're hoping to be, yeah, well into this project but where? >> We really we we looked at it we did a we did a goal plan in January with all the contractors that were on boarded. And uh so it was really it was in the space. We
027had about 30 people. It was a good chance for us to collaborate and uh look at uh the scheduling from from different aspects by trade and and just kind of, you know, un- unpack what's going on at the elementary school. There's a lot of things going on there. We It ended up being three different three different areas. So, the one is uh the south wing that goes all the way up to the gym. Second being the addition. And the third being the north wing. So, we got the early start in the six classrooms on the south wing, and we intend to finish that up to the gym for the fall. Secondly, we we are starting the addition here in April May now, and that will go longer into the fall, and uh our goal is
028to is to have that dried in uh by October. So, then lastly, it allows us to allows the school to move the furniture up to the north wing while we're working on the south wing. And then following summer, we'll finish the north wing. It'll be much much simpler at that point, lot fewer rooms. So, that's that's our that's our target. >> Excellent. So, we're looking at a 100% completion not this summer, but the summer of 2027, hopefully before the start of school. >> Correct. >> Right. And it's going to be inconvenient. We've got a lot of stuff going on. I think you guys are doing a pretty good job of uh making sure that everything is well marked and you got to be careful about pick up and drop off times. I know we had
029a couple concerns that we had to work through last week, but it seems like everybody is getting along well with all the different stuff going on. Is that Would you Is that accurate? >> I think so. Uh there's always a little, you know, just you know, where where to where to move. Uh we we've worked very closely with uh Deanna. And uh we may work in work in daily. Uh we are monitoring that. Um you know, with with our our goal is to not disrupt the operations of the school. So, if it has to be uh evening or a weekend or something here till the end of school, we try to work, you know, we we put that isolation wall in there for the south six wing. But please let us know if uh something
030uh is something is bothersome and we will address it. >> Yeah. And I think also we are going to get some stuff completed this summer. I believe that the track is getting some finishing touches this summer and will be done. The tennis courts. Anything else going to be done this summer? >> That's that's mainly going to be uh I'm going to have another poll plan uh for the high school middle school. Uh June 24th is my target. And I'll have more schedule updates for you on on those two projects. Majority of that being in summer of 2027. We hope to capture a little bit on the elevator. Uh but uh more will come out of that uh discussion at the board plan June 24th. >> And as far as the bids uh bid opening tomorrow,
031what does that what does that work look like? What are we bidding on? >> We are bidding on a lot of uh energy efficiency uh improvements in the high school, middle school, some uh temperature controls is is a large package. Uh we're also doing metal paneling, uh dressing up the side of the building. Um there's some work at the Drift Inn with uh some windows and mechanical space as well as some window replacements alternates in the cafeteria. >> Well, great. And I know East Elementary is the biggest project of them all and it's going to take the longest, but I know a lot of people trying to stay up with all the different little projects that are going on and we're going to be starting on the middle school and high school soon. Um so
032there's a lot of stuff going on. Any questions uh by board members? Anybody have uh question for Brett or Becky? Okay. Thank you, Brett. >> Thank you all. >> Thank you. >> Steve Steve, you want to step up real quick just while we got Becky and Brett here. I think you guys know Steve Steve is our facilities director, but I just want to get your quick thoughts too on how everything is going, the relationship with Site Logic and the progress and all that stuff. What are you seeing from your perspective? >> I think it's going really smooth. Uh we have a good working relationship. I work closely with uh and David Eason. I talk to him every day. I see him every day. Um so we have a good working relationship and we had a
033couple small minor problems but we instantly got you know settled in and then it hasn't happened again so everything's working out smoothly. >> Good good and I know a lot of the stuff that we're doing with Site Logic is bond work but I know you have other projects going on. Are there any uh you want to share with us on the progress of some of your other projects? >> We're going to start the tennis courts. We're going to pressure wash them Thursday and Friday and then after that they're going to start painting them. So they should be done by the time school's out. And then the track will be uh shortly after that going on. >> And I think we're looking at doing something with the middle school bleachers this summer. >> Bleachers will be
034removed and they're worst case scenario they won't be installed until the second week of September. Um that's just worst case scenario because they had to manufacture them um contractor gave me a worst case date it was like September 14th. But middle school will have new bleachers by the end of the school year. >> Very cool and I know that I know the middle school bleachers Ben you've been talking about the middle school bleachers ever since we've been here for 2 or 3 years right? I know you had concerns about the safety of the bleachers right? >> Yeah I mean only the first uh three steps have steps that are shorter even those are high. We have second graders going up and down there's not really spots for handicap accessibility or for spots to sit and
035watch games so it's something we needed for sure. >> Excellent. Any questions for Steve? All right thanks Steve. Okay I Becky did you have anything else you wanted to add or if not thank you for joining us and we'll talk again soon. Get better. >> That's all thank you. >> Thank you. >> Okay I just have a couple other things I want to talk about real quickly. Um things that we've been talking about for a while just going to give you an update first we've already just got our Site Logic update um they seem to be going very well. They're um um on time. Uh again, East Elementary for for those of you who may not know is the biggest project of all the projects. It's going to be over half of the bond uh
036allotment. So, if you recall back in November, um the community uh passed the uh tax extension, which created revenue of approximately $22 million, and half of that money is going to East Elementary. Which East Elementary, rebuilt in 1959, is the one that needs the most tender loving care. Would you agree, Deanna? No? So, um just a couple other things I want to touch on. Um if I get this to work. There we go. We had the groundbreaking ceremony uh back in we posted back on April 16th. That was a good time. There's been a lot of progress done to that area since we were there. And then also, Marty, you want to step up? Uh one of the big things that we're doing today we spent a lot of time. I think most of you
037are aware of you participated in uh the hiring process, interview process for Steve. Um there's some of his bio stuff, but uh Marty is uh this is this is a position that's going to be at the high school. Uh this person is going to be an assistant principal {slash} athletic director. Uh he comes with us with a lot of uh good stuff, but I wanted Marty to talk a little bit about it. >> Yeah, really uh honestly very proud that our district's great and uh Steve Klein. He um has an extensive career in education uh over 20 years he's been in the game. Um athletically speaking, uh he's had a hand in everything, whether it be basketball, football, softball. He's coached at the collegiate level. Um he's just a very well-rounded athletic administrator, which is
038going to going to Um probably the best thing I can say about it um, from my standpoint we want good strong values in in our voting. This man brings that. He's very strong ethically. Um, probably one of the kindest people you'll meet. Hard working uh, very energetic family man. Um, he's a good dad. We We love having good dads on our staff too. He He's a good man. So, I'm I'm very proud to bring that on but uh, known Steve for a number of years and um, just his his ethical approach and his knowledge and his energy is going to be something that is going to absolutely continue to make us grow. So, really honored to have him as a part of our school and chief. >> Yep. So, we're really excited. Steve will be
039on the agenda uh, tonight for uh, hopefully for approval for uh, hiring. Um, he officially will not begin until August 1st but I do know there's a lot of athletic business that needs to be done. One in particular is we're going to have to fill some big shoes for the head boys basketball coaching position. You want to talk a little bit about that? >> Yeah, so not to say that we've jerked you around a little bit on this but um, with the position we're in our current athletic director is our basketball coach. So, um, with Jason's retirement um, obviously he's not going to hire the next guy. So, what we want to do is make sure that we were in a spot where we had our athletic director um, nailed down and approved at a
040board meeting and then he will be on our athletic um, committee to make sure that we bring in our new coach. Um, he's ready to do that but got to make sure we get through some business tonight first before we can make that happen. >> So, he's going to help out informally I think and I think you got uh, last we talked you had a pretty good uh, group of candidates for head boys basketball and you're narrowing it down and I think one of the goals is uh, for uh, boys basketball in particular. I know they I know they do a lot of summer work. Yep. So, if things work well and we can get Steve involved and I know you're working on your committee um, maybe as early as May uh, 18th is our
041next board meeting. >> That's our target goal is at the next board meeting have a recommendation for you guys to approve. >> There we go. >> Yep. >> Any questions for Marty about uh, Steve and I think some of you were on the interview committee, so you probably know a little bit more about Steve than most, but I think we're we're very excited to have him and uh hit the ground running on August 1st. >> Absolutely. >> Thank you, Marty. >> Thank you. >> Okay. Um one more I think you guys are aware of this. This is a hot topic. Right, Michelle? >> Yes. >> We've been talking with the teachers union quite a bit about this and it's just been, you know, if you think we thought the ice storm was bad last winter,
042my goodness. Um we had the blizzard of '26 and then a couple weeks ago we had some flooding going on. So, there is some um lawmaker proposals that are that have been uh pushed uh to Lansing for Governor uh Whitmer to uh take a look at and um I think there's two or three, aren't there, Michelle? I think there's three now. So, but it's very interesting. Um if you guys remember last year with the ice storms, they didn't approve uh our waiver uh to cover our extended days until >> like a week before school got out. It was actually quite nerve-racking. >> So, again, we're finding ourselves in a position where we we know there are proposals that have been sent to Lansing, but I don't think they're in any hurry to let us know
043whether they're going to approve them or not and also whether or not we will be included in those waivers. The kind of the catch with some of these is uh Correct me if I'm wrong, Michelle. I know you know this well, but some of these proposals, at least one of them, it only it only kind of designates uh those that were in the emergency declared state of emergency for the snow. Even though that we got all the snow that we got, it was the uh counties in central Michigan because of ice that got declared a state of emergency. So, we're hoping that we're going to be included in this, uh but it's yet to be yet to be seen, right? A lot of talk. Matter of fact, in our last superintendent meeting down at the
044COPE ESD headquarters, we had all 10 superintendents from our region and representative Cavitt and Senator Demeusse was there and talked specifically about this. I I got to tell you, I didn't make when I When we were done talking with the two legislators, I wasn't we didn't feel really warm and cozy that this was going to get done. So, that kind of So, what I what I do know is a lot of school districts, some of them have already adjusted their calendar, but they're already making those moves just so people can prepare. I know that's another big thing, too, with teachers and students and parents. Are we going to have to make up these days or not? And if we're going to make them up and people are starting to plan for the summer, we need
045to let them know sooner than later. So, if you recall, our problem is a little bit more unique than some of the others because we have the most days, 17 days of instruction lost. Nine of them were throughout the winter. I actually thought we were going to make it through and then the blizzard of 2026 comes. And there goes, you know, now we're over the limit and that was five days for us and some of those days were a state of emergency. Well, in some of those days you couldn't get out of your house, right? I mean, it took two or three days before some of us could get out of our driveway. So, it was no surprise that the blizzard we ended up being out for an entire week. And then, two weeks ago,
046we get flooding. And I feel more confident about the flood days because we were, and I know Ron Fettman's out there from the EOC you know we were in communication with Ron and Jeremy Runstrom and all those folks and we were essentially told right? You can't be in school right now so and we were declared a state of emergency right? So to me we really didn't have a choice here but again no one's really talking about those days in Lansing. So that concerns me but I put out some calls to cabinet got a call set up for Senator Senator DeMuese if if any of of you would like to call representative cabinet or Senator DeMuese I would encourage you to do so the more pressure we can put on them to make sure that they
047don't forget about us the better because I really do think obviously the three days should be waved and we're still kind of hanging in limbo about the five days for the blizzard so I know there's two or three proposals in Lansing right now and they're reviewing them. I miss anything Michelle? >> Just a lot of people are saying well the governor's going to wave those days. The governor cannot excuse us from school. It's it's a law that we have to be in session 180 days. So the only way to excuse that is through legislation. So people need to understand that the governor can't just say oh you're excused. So please contact your representatives and then one of the proposed legislation is to uh to excuse any any days that are result of a state of
048emergency declared by the governor. So and it's legislation that goes into effect that would go for 10 years. It's got a sunset after 10 years so it can be looked at again to see if it was working or not. So that that's one to kind of solve this problem if we're in a county that's declared a state of emergency and that's necessitate us closing school, those if that legislation passes in the future, those days will be excused. >> Yes. And I think that's kind of a big one right now because right now the entire state of Michigan gets nine days, right? You get six then you can apply for a waiver for three which is typically rubber rubber stamped. But what we're finding is especially in northern Michigan, we're getting the nine pretty quick, right?
049Maybe not southern in in south Michigan but northern Michigan and UP uh usually gets the nine pretty fast. So, they're looking at just increasing that those the number of emergency days from nine I seen 15 possibly. Uh but yet uh Michelle hits it right on the head with this is the they need to change the law. It's just not up to the governor. I know Deb you were telling me that someone was telling you that I I forgot to fill out the right paperwork. That's why I missed >> What I heard was that >> I wish there was paperwork. I wish all I had to do was fill out a form, but please if you hear somebody No, this has to be a change in the law. And and that you know, you you I
050know we're nervous as we get to the end of the school year. People want to know, they want to make plans, but I I I just don't see them you know, moving us to the top of their priority list. Again, I think it's probably going to be mid late May before we find out find out exactly how many days we need to make up. So, on the it's up I'd like you guys to discuss this a little bit today. It's on the agenda. You can talk about um moving the end of the school year. Um so, one of the things that we talked about in the cabinet meeting is right now we know for sure this is I really think because this was a state of emergency those three days will be waived eventually. I'm
051hopeful for the five days, but not certain. But if we wanted to move the the end of the uh the school year from the 5th to the 12th, that's something you guys can discuss. The good thing about that is at least people know, parents and students know, okay, it looks like we could go to that date, but between now and May 18th, hopefully, some of the legislators make a decision and we'll know and if we have to, the best case scenario, we come back on May 18th and say, "Guess what? They waived all the days. We're going to get ex- the 9 days excused and the five from the blizzard and the three from the flood and we don't have to add any days." That would be the best case scenario, but the only problem
052about about waiting to May 18th to make any decision or have any discussion is we only have a couple weeks till school's out, you know, people probably are planning vacations like that and are looking to to do other stuff. So, I just want to give you guys the information. You guys can discuss it. We could We could look at moving the end date today or wait till May 18th. That's up for you guys to decide. Any questions for me about snow days? Really tired of talking about snow days, but uh Any questions for me in general? Okay, Jessica, I think you're going to need to Is she next? >> I'm sorry, I did want to take one moment. >> Oh, yes, I'm sorry. Yep, go ahead, please. >> Um this past Wednesday was Executive Assistants'
053special day and um Chris is actually also our secretary of the board and we just wanted to take a moment and thank her for how well she takes care of us. So, Okay. Beautiful. And sometimes we're not the easiest bunch to as well. No. So, okay. Try not to trip over here. Flip trip and fall. >> Yes, it's over. >> And some survey for us. >> Yeah, so teachers have already seen this. I'm sorry, what? >> Oh, nothing. >> Don't fall, right? >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. >> You'll catch me if I fall. Uh so, teachers have seen this already. Uh every year we do perception data surveys where there's a survey that goes to students, staff, and families. And then we look at some of the different questions in those surveys and we triangulate the
054data and look for trends of what is uh common and what are some different uh areas of strength and growth within the different uh questions that are asked. So, just to give you a little background information uh as far as responses this year, I'm going to move here so I can see you while I'm talking to you. Uh we had 176 parents respond to our survey, students, and 99 staff members. So, it's approximately half of our student body and half of our staff that responded to this. Uh the request goes out in the Sunday soup um to principal emails each week to their staff, and this is what we got this year. So, we're talking about different ways that we might be able to increase participation in this survey. We'd love to have um more
055parents but than 176, and also greater than 50% of our students and staff participating. Um with the parent survey, so start with strengths, and the parents we looked at um anything that was above 80% I considered that a strength. So, the ones that they designated as areas that were they were pleased with were having access to information about their child's school events. So, we got 83.4% school providing opportunities for two-way communication between home and school. So, not just getting uh email blast, but being able to have conversation with the teachers or someone at the school uh was approximately 83%. Uh knowing how to monitor child's academic progress almost 87. And then making sure that children attend their child attends school every day was 96%. So, our parents are able to communicate with us and know
056where to find information and make sure that their kids get to school every day. So, we appreciate that. So, students they actually there wasn't anything over 80%. So, I just took the top two. Uh and they come to school and participate every day. So, approximately 75%. Um and then they feel safe at school. Again, about 75%. And so, we talked as a staff about how there's such a strong correlation between these things. If students don't feel safe at school, they're not going to come to school. And so, we are really glad that we're able to provide an environment that is not just physically safe, but psychologically safe. So, emotionally safe for them as well. Staff, um it was again with the whole safety piece. They believe school has security and safety procedures in place. Having
057access to information about school and events. Uh opportunities for two-way communication. So, we're seeing some uh similarities with the adults that are coming through. So, that's positive. And then uh teachers being flexible in adjusting instructional and behavioral strategies in their lesson plans to meet the needs of their students. So, we have teachers who are adjusting their instruction to meet the needs of the students in their room. Uh some of that comes from the art of teaching. Some of it comes from our use of formative assessment data and building relationships with kids. They know their kids and they're able to adjust for them. So, those were the strengths. And then, areas of growth, I looked at anything below 60% as an area of growth. So, for parents, having opportunities to participate in parent learning events, and
058helping to or events that would help them with their work at home. And then, using community partnerships for teaching and learning. So, those were the two, and actually this one was 63.4, so I just picked the lowest two on that. Maybe something else was below 60%. So, those were the two for parents. Students, my teacher and I talk about how I'm doing in school. So, kids want a little more opportunity maybe for some conversation with their teacher, which I know we all get busy, but we try to have those meetings. And then, they feel their school is clean. 52%. That one I thought was kind of funny cuz the year before, it was a strength. And then, this year it wasn't, and so I think it probably ebbs and flows depending on the year. And
059then, areas of growth for staff, having time to collaborate with colleagues to conduct data analysis on student work and assessment results. This was up from 19% the year before, so we're making gains in this area of giving colleagues time to work together, but we still have growth in that area. Having professional learning that aligns with what they need to do their job at an effective level. So, we're working on professional learning plan, planning for next year, and plans for how to meet the individual needs of teachers, which is also the same as having assessed students. We try to meet people's needs. So, we're working on adjusting that as well. And then, utilizing community partnerships for teaching and learning. So, we recognize that we are who we want to build the community partnership piece. So, we're
060looking for opportunities to do that as well. Um and then just next steps, the things that we're working on. Um staff input on that professional learning and what that could look like. There are certain things we have to do um from the education powers that be at the state level. And so, balancing some of that with what people would like um and what they need is sometimes a challenge depending on the amount of time that we have. And then looking at our calendar and trying to plan PD at certain points through the year so that it can be the most effective and efficient use of our time. And then working on continued development of community partnerships. So, we'll be looking for some ideas on how to build opportunities for people in the community to support
061what we're doing here and keep that everything's happening. Did I make it in 5 minutes? All right. That was That was what I was told. So, um this is just a really big broad stroked overview. If you have any specific questions, I can answer them or happy to chat about it. >> Thank you, Jessica. >> You're welcome. Um Next on our agenda, I'm going to give the uh curriculum committee summary. We met um last week. Um we are took a look at EMC and the EMCA program. Um we do have some students who will be um in their fifth year next year. Um so, we'll start seeing some of those returns. Um at this point, we are looking at 10 to 12 of those students, um expect to spend their fifth year in the program.
062There is an eligibility checklist in place and unfortunately some of our students are finding that they do need to opt out of EMC because they're able to earn more money and scholarships through the tip program in the state. We are hoping to add high school online learning lab next year. Um Edmentum would allow us to add for some extended course offerings. Those courses would require some certified teachers however to at least put in put the grades for those courses and of course there would need to be staffing to supervise during the lab hours. Um we have had multiple retirements and or resignations across our buildings as far as staffing for next year goes. We have done some internal moves to fill some of the roles. We have some additional hires to be discussed and we
063can't make final decisions on some of that because some of our data is going to rely on kindergarten numbers and how many students are enrolled there. Um We've spoke about MTSS and instruction. The team has explored some improvements for next year including some combining some leadership teams and expanding high school interventions that include some more staff input. As for professional development, goal for next year is more PDs scheduled earlier in the year. where it received some positive safety training feedback. The staff felt that was really great training. May 6th is the last PD for the school year and will be focused on curriculum. As for summer school, K-5 summer school will be grant funded and held at the intermediate. Everything those grades down is going to take place at the intermediate due to the construction
064at East. There will be transportation and food service scheduled. Middle school and high school plans are still underway um depending on what they can put together for staffing for summer school sessions and some students will need to pick up some credits in order to be able to graduate. Um The district did receive a 61 B grant. Um $286,000 STEM grant and this grant is for grades 6 through 8 and it has a very tight spending timeline. So I know that people are hustling to get some things in place for that program for the 6th through 8th grade. >> If I may add to that, we I don't know if you guys have heard the 61 B grant is a way for schools to get additional funding to supplement their CT programs. Uh we were the
065only school in northern Michigan to receive the grant. Um we already have 10 high school programs. So we we decided to attempt to see if we could get funding for a middle school program and it was granted. So Ryan McGlothlin and myself are heading down to Lansing to it's a substantial amount of money about I'm sorry, how much? >> 252 A lot of money. >> 252 >> Yeah, so um thank you for that. And we Ryan and I are heading Since this is a brand new grant this year, um we are going down to Lansing to uh work with those folks about how to properly implement this program. But this should be uh get some really cool opportunities uh to our students grade 6 through 8. So I'm looking forward to that. >> Okay. Um
066next on the agenda, uh we do have a suggested motion. Um and we need to consider approving a calendar revision for this school year. Um so I would be looking for a motion to approve extending the end of the school year date from June 5th of 2026 to June 12th of 2026 due to the need for additional snow days. >> Put in the motion. So if we approve this motion, but then let's say June 1st, the state says, "Oh, you guys don't have to do it." >> Let's have a motion and then we could discuss, please. We'll have a motion. >> I'll motion as presented. >> I'll support. Thank you. Okay, now ask your question, Rich. >> What is the drop dead date for the state to come back and say you don't have to
067do those days? And then could we cancel those days on, I don't know, June 3rd, let's say? >> You guys have a special meeting. >> Yes. >> You get we had >> We had to have a special meeting last year, if you recall, because it was down to the wire last year as well. >> Okay, just want to make sure that >> Ho- hopefully by May 18th we'll have more information, but I wouldn't count on Lansing to have something rock solid by May 18th. But if if if >> Last year comes call until Day. I know. Yeah, so if it comes after >> Wait the day. Okay. >> Yep. >> Okay. >> We got to have a special board meeting. If it's after the 18th. >> Wait. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Okay.
068>> I personally think that we need to formally give the heads up to our families that based on the best information we have at this time and we're again we're we're still relying on we were given those days last time because of the state of emergency. We're assuming that'll hit our three flood days, but you know what happens when we assume. Um so my opinion personally is I think we need to at least give our families a heads up and if we need to come back and say "Woohoo!" we'll come back and do that. >> So what if the three flood days are not for time? >> Then >> I have three more. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Because there is a we have to meet 180. >> Okay. >> Right. >> Okay. >> Would
069that change anything for seniors at all? >> No. >> They get excused. >> Lucky ducks. Anything further? Are we ready to vote? Luke Kakoske? >> Yep. >> Richard Pilon? >> Yes. >> Tim Tarchick? >> Yes. >> Deborah Buener? >> Yes. >> Matt Harchick? >> Yes. >> Thank you. Our next agenda item is accepting a resignation. Um Ms. Fox has been an intermediate school teacher and I believe she is the wife of a Coast Guard um member in our community and he has been reassigned. So, I would entertain a motion to accept with regrets her resignation. >> I make that motion as presented. >> Support. >> I have a motion by Luke supported by Tim. >> Luke Kokoski? >> Yep. >> Richard Pilon? >> Yes. >> Tim Tarjohn? >> Yes. >> Deborah Boudreau? >> Yes. >>
070Matt Melarkey? >> Yes. >> And we wish her well. Um next on our agenda is approval of new hire. I am looking for a motion to approve the hiring of Steve Kling as assistant principal athletic director effective July 1st, 2026. >> I'll make that motion. >> I'll second it. >> Motion made by Rich seconded by Luke. Any discussion? I would like to Oops, sorry. Go ahead. >> Well, just so people know that I was a part of the interview committee the first time he came with a bunch of other people. And then I think there's another round of interviews with two more committees of people. That I think Luke, you were on it. >> I was on the second one, yeah. >> Yeah, you were on the second one. >> Yeah. I thought it was
071uh very community involved. A lot of people involved in the uh decision. And he he outshone He he was the top notch. >> I was on the second round of uh interviews as well and definitely kids first. Um he's not here tonight. I thought it was interesting. He stopped through the other day and he said, "I can't be there cuz I'm coaching and I'm not going to bail on my kids." That's the kind of guy we need, in my opinion. I was very impressed with him. >> Energetic. >> Yeah. >> a good presentation. He's ready to go. Um I I felt positive after I interviewed with him. >> And I would like to clear up, too, because you know what? Apparently, I hear things at the hair salon. Um >> Where you going? >> And
072don't look at my hair today. And it was uh he is not replacing Mr. Wilson. Um we're adding an assistant principal. See, I know what I'm talking about. >> I've heard that at the school, too. >> I've heard it as well. Um so, no, we're adding an assistant principal um because the seventh and eighth graders are there now. Um so, he will be 70% AD, 30-ish, that ballpark. >> Mhm. >> Okay. >> Yeah, with the seventh grade coming over and uh we also learned that, you know, Jason Friday being a part of the teachers' contract and teaching a few classes was spread pretty thin athletically and um we want to make sure that uh with the seventh grade coming over to the high school and we want to have him dedicated to the, you know,
073whatever he can do to help improve the athletic department and give students opportunities for more success. Um we're really excited about him joining our team. >> I think it's crazy getting a hair cut at the student in that position as a vice principal. He's going to just be an AD in an office. He's going to be out there with the kids. I thought that was positive. So, it's good stuff. >> Okay. Okay. Louis Kokoski. >> Yep. >> Richard Phelan. >> Yes. >> Tim Tartaglia. >> Yes. >> Deborah Buener. >> Yes. >> And Matt Palumbo. >> Yes. >> Welcome to the team. Next item on the agenda, um we do have another retirement to consider this evening. So, I am looking for the motion to accept with regrets the retirement of Barbara Burbridge intermediate food service.
074>> I make that motion. >> I have Luke Shephard and Matt with support. Luke Kakoske? >> Yep. >> Richard Pilon? >> Yes. >> Tim Tarzia? >> Yes. >> Deborah Buelna? >> Yes. >> Matt Malarchick? >> Yes. >> Motion passes. Okay. Under stable finances, Matt, are you giving the finance report? >> Yes. >> Thank you. >> Um we'll go over the retirement stuff that's already been discussed Um there's a little bit of work to do on the track. They cut a wire when they were putting it in and so they're going to be SiteLogix going to work with Reifler to get that fixed. That's the wire to the scoreboard. Um there was a also a sinkhole out there that Steve's identified that they're also going to have to come and repair as well this spring. Um
075SiteLogix presented a result from the state inspection over these things where they have to redo some stuff in the mechanical room. It was I think they might have been talking about it here, but um that was something that was the state inspector. It wasn't They really didn't anybody did wrong. It's just the state inspector saying that we have to make these changes. I think it was I think it was something about a steel I think it was a rich. >> Yep. >> Um so that they said that's going to be approximately $38,000 um and um um then we had Jordan came and talked about replacing Chromebooks. He said currently 90% of the Chromebooks we have are beyond their lifespan. Um he'd like to replace 150 this year and 150 next year. Um estimated cost is
076around $150,000 or about $500 a piece. Um he's working uh maybe being able to reduce some of the amount that we need by looking at you know a few other things, but that's kind of he was showing us some of the some of them that they were in uh pretty bad state of disrepair, so then uh Steve talked about We already talked about the tennis court and the track stuff. And um he's looking into window film as well for some of the windows. Walk up over the entrance ways. And then we just had a discussion on budgeting and and staffing as there's been a lot of retirements and so the administration from all the buildings are kind of working together seeing what they anticipate their class sizes to be next year and um are still
077looking at presenting what their plan would be going into next year for the staffing. And then Steve had the bus inspection was going on um by the state. And they were completely I think I think he said and uh went pretty well. They're they're great, Steve. >> Steve's right. >> They went really well. >> And there were no there was no issues, right? I thought you said there was no major issues or anything like that, so you guys should do a good job over there keeping everything up to snuff. Um that was good. >> Thank you. Any questions for him? Okay. Uh I guess we got to pay some bills, so I am looking to acknowledge the payment of regular and bond invoices in the amount of 1,780,794 dollars and 7 cents. >> I'll make
078that motion. >> Support. >> And a motion by Rich and support by Matt. >> Luke Easterling? >> Yeah. >> Richard Pilon? >> Yes. >> Tim Tarsha? >> Yes. >> Deborah Bruner? >> Yes. >> Matt Malarchy? >> Yes. >> All right.

Anybody else? >> Third time's the charm, Spencer. I'm going to say what a foolish woman, right? I love my kids and I think you do too. I love them more. Um my name is Miss Sheila. Sheila Kilgore. I live on Upper Mowry Road. One of my students gave me this for Christmas. It's human sunshine and I'm going to try to get through this without crying. Sorry. Human sunshine is an incredible person with a beautiful soul who makes the world a better place every single day. Someone who excels at everything they do and gives everything of themselves all the
081time. Human sunshine. Miss Sheila, this was given by the parent. We hope you have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy your break. We want you to know how special we think you are. Your positive attitude and awesome personality is what our kiddos need in their lives. You are truly amazing role model for them and we can't thank you enough. You're truly human sunshine. Woo. A teacher when I was fired Honestly, I really appreciate all that you've done in my classroom. You were always a bright light when I needed it. Your positive attitude always makes me smile. Thank you for always keeping me on track and for finding my lost work. You've made a difference in many child's children's lives. If I really need a reference, please use me. I love those kids. I never knew I
082liked kids until I got pregnant at 43. I have a 10-year-old there. I didn't let anybody else down more than him. I do apologize for letting the community down and my children. I apologize very hard for that. And for letting Mr. Sly and Ms. Pam down. I miss you a lot. I was recently let go for gossiping and unprofessional behavior and adding a negative attitude to the atmosphere. Um I apologize to everybody including my family. I've been an LRE aide now for 3 years. Best 3 years of my working life. Thank you Deanna Dustin for giving me the chance. She hired me in at East Side for a little boy in a wheelchair. We did really good together. So I've been an intermediate with him. We worked the next year until 17 days left of
083that year. And I was forced to resign to take a couple days off with my son. That was a really hard decision. I resigned. So I've been in two. I just left and started subbing for the next year. I worked as a sub as much as possible for Spring Garden schools. Um begged for my job back the next year. And then Ashley gave me another chance. Round two. After much thought, I'm sure that took. I was so happy to have my job back. It was my happy place. I loved that place. Really sorry for the questionable behavior, but obviously I don't think it was handled properly, which is why I'm requesting a closed door meeting with the board at this time. It doesn't have to be happening at this time. I'm currently blocked from even
084being a sub in this school in area schools. I'm not the bad guy here. The kids love me, the teachers appreciate me, most of them, and I love it there, and I love these kids, and they love me. And I think I should be >> Thank you. >> That's all I got. >> Thank you. >> Crazy lady, maybe. They love me, though. Thank you, Lord, I got through without crying. I prayed for that. Thank you. >> Is there anything else? >> No. Hello. Amanda Tanner, I live in Cheboygan. I don't have a form, I'll give it to you after this, cuz I didn't know I was going to speak tonight. Until I heard that we're paying $500 pop for Chromebooks. And I think somebody needs to get a bid because a lot of your little
085pocket computer thingies, they're like 250 bucks a piece. So, unless we're buying kids touch screens, which run about 450 bucks a piece, $500 a piece Chromebooks? You got to do some more investigating. All right? I used to teach computers right here in Cheboygan schools for many years. So, I'm not just some plain Jane that's talking out my butt. You know, I I know I know a thing or two about computers. So, let's do some investigation. Let's save the district some money, get the kids tech they need, and that's all I have. >> Good evening. My name is Jenna Lynn Holm. Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately for some, I have ADHD. And that that gives me a tendency toward a strong sense of justice and the ability to hyperfocus on what matters. And while many of us
086are still concerned about Travis Neville officially remaining on the board, my focus has likely shifted to the financial well-being of this district. I came here tonight fully expecting to talk about finances, budget, priorities, the decisions that shape what the schools can offer our kids. And why it's concerning to see so little discussion around and transparency around expanding the budget and about what was reportedly spent overspent by nearly a million dollars. I can't remember the exact number. But sometimes what demands your attention shows up in your inbox on Sunday evening. This week I read the Sunday Scoop, and what struck me was what was presented as the quote of the week. I play violently. That's just how I play. Not perseverance, not teamwork, not resilience, violence. As something to be embraced, even admired. This is a
087pattern, a tone that's becoming familiar, and a question we should all be sitting with is this who we want to be as a school community? Because the messages we elevate help define what we value. So yes, finances definitely matter. And culture matters, too. And right now, I think we owe it to our students to take a closer look at both. Because just as we shouldn't be normalizing or celebrating violence, we also shouldn't be treating the loss of experienced educators as financial wins. And or treating our teachers as a line item. They're the lifeblood of this district. And the culture you create through your words, through your messaging, and through your priorities matters just as much as the budget that seem to be getting rubber-stamped.
